programming languages + video games

Today, because it is object oriented and compiles to binary (the native language of the target platform), the most popular game development language is C++[citation needed]. However, Java and C are also popular, but inappropriate for some projects. Assembly language is necessary for some video game console programming and in some routines that need to be as fast as possible, or require very little overhead. Fringe languages such as C#, Ada and Python have had very little impact upon the industry[citation needed] and are primarily used by hobbyists familiar with the languages, though C# is popular for developing game development tools.

The Game Creators GDK will allow you to develop powerful, cool 2D and 3D games. Included is complete integration with the Visual C++ 2008 Express development environment, allowing you to harness the power and performance of the C++ language. Also included is full IntelliSense support in Visual C++ 2008 Express.Game Creators GDK | myhosting.com
